It's late but that's ok because I'm the mom and I said so!

Let me preface this post by saying I'M SORRY! I totally forgot to post yesterday and I promise you that it has nothing at all to do with Words With Friends. Promise.

Anyway, last weekend was Mother's Day weekend! Every year, I host a Mom's Night Out with my mom friends. We started with dinner at Casa Grille and then headed to Bisque It to paint some pottery, eat some cakies, and drink some wine :o) This is always a fun night. It's nice to get together with people my age that have kids and understand motherhood. As always, I opened the invite up for each of my friends to bring a mom friend of their own... you know, expanding the social circles! We had a blast!

If you have never been to a pottery painting studio, I highly suggest visiting one! Obviously, if you are in the Fort Wayne area you need to go to Bisque It... I hear the owner is super nice (she's my mom)! With the exception of two, this year's group was totally new to Mom's Night Out. I don't think any of them had been to Bisque It before... Did I mention that it was a lot of fun??

Sarah painted a pretty awesome sun plate!

Jennie and her mom, Cyndie

Leanne (right) and her mom friend, Stephanie

Amy and her mom friend, Danielle

Ashley... she loved the cakies :o)

Our finished projects before they were fired. *Mom- I need a pic of these fired!*

On Sunday, after receiving some love from Mike and the girls at home (I got a gift certificate for a massage and some beautifully colored pictures!), the fam and I headed up to Garrett to visit my mom and dad! Jaden and Taylor surprised me with some plates they had made for me at Bisque It!

We gave Gramma J her yearly photo book of the girls.

The girls helped Gramma make lunch :o)

Can you believe these guys?? This is supposed to be a day where they pamper Mom and I, and all they do is sit on their butts and play on their dumb phones! Makes me sick, I tell ya!

Hey! How did this picture get in here?!?!

Again, I promise you that I am reading each of your blogs and totally NOT playing Words With Friends (user name is shanmc01 if you "don't" play this either!)

My lovely family :o)

Happy Mother's Day, Momma!

Ok, I'm starting to get flashbacks of the whole photos-before-prom thing from high school!

Love you, babe!

Hope you all had a great Mother's Day! Oh, and if you received your Spring Fling gift, send me a photo of your goodies! If you haven't sent it yet, DO IT THIS WEEK! If you haven't received a gift yet (not counting Lala) email me and I'll do some investigating :o) Happy Wednesday!
